NoPermsMessage

Plugin category: Admin

Suggested name: NoPermsMessage (NPS)

What I want: I would like a plugin that gives the same message every time you type a command of which you don't have the permission to use. The plugin would just replace that message with a global message (color supported) telling you whatever you set in the config. (Instead of a different message for the various different plugins).

Ideas for commands:
/nps <--- See the current noperms message.
/setnps [MessageWithColorSupport] <--- Set the nps message.

Ideas for permissions:
nps.see <--- Use the /nps command.
nps.set <--- Use the /setnps command.

When I'd like it by: When someone can do it.

 

timtower And how would you do that?

 

timtower Zahach It's simple enough to modify the packet.

 

timtower Empire92 Wow! I don't understand anything

 

Well, the problem is that there is no centralized method allowing you to change the method.
You can either get all the commands that have a registered permission (and not all do) and check if you have that before the plugin does...

Or you can modify any packet that has something like "You don't have permission for..." but some plugins have their own message.

What I would suggest is a config file which contains all the sentences you would like replaced with your global "No Perm" message.

 

Zahach I finished the plugin for you using packets.
* it requires protocollib

Empire92 Testing it now.

Empire92 Unfortunately... it doesn't work. :/

Empire92 Or I just don't know how to use it.

This assumes the plugin properly registers the permission to the command, which is not always the case. Sometimes it's not even bad practice, such as in the case of sub-commands where it's impossible to register a permission via the plugin.yml. The best you could do is to create a config where the user has to list every command on the server (in a string form with the sub command, for example '/ncp info') along with its permission and then the plugin can check against that. Sounds like a huge pain, and would probably be abused to trick users into thinking the server is running custom plugins ("[ServerAntiCheatVClipBanMcMMO] Sorry you can't use that command on our custom server because it's custom coded and custom.").

 

I suppose not, I would just imagine that's how it would end up. Listing every single command (and editing the list every time you add a plugin) sounds annoying, though. Doesn't seem like anybody would end up using it.

timtower hmm... Who can do it for me? I don't really have the time to list every single one... Either somebody is nice enough to do it for me (which I don't think anybody would want to do it) or I won't use the plugin :/ sorry. I have 55 plugins on my server and its a huge amount to handle. But thanks for helping me out!

 

timtower NICE!

timtower Still doesn't work though...
Got this error:

Zahach My plugin works fine.
What you want to do is add any messages that you want replaced with the no perm message to the config.
You will see "example message one" and "example message two" are already added there.
any instances of these messages will be replaced by the global message.
The commands and permissions you requested above work:
/nps - views the current no perm message
/setnps - sets the no perm message
/nps reload

If you have 55 plugins on your server, then it's likely that there are up to a thousand permissions...

 

timtower So... is it because of spigot?

Empire92 OHH!! I didn't know how to use it x) could you add a command to add the messages you want to change, so that you can do it in-game? like /npsadd [message]
and are the messages to be inputed case-sensitive? and how does it work if the message is in, say darkred? do I add the color code at the beginning? or leave the sentence without it?
Sorry so much questions :/

Zahach
sure, 1 sec
Edit:
I added /addnps - perm: nps.add
as well as /delnps <index>
Messages are no longer case sensitive. (commands were never case sensitive)
Whoops, wrong DL: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8q3Sk6G42--VzhUbDhxUHRvRU0/edit?usp=sharing

 

Empire92 I edited my message look again

 

timtower Ok i'll go back to bukkit then... I just find it easier to use this forum than the spigot** forum..
And I normally use bukkit, but it's just for the 1.7.8. When bukkit releases a beta 1.7.8 I'll move on to that.

Empire92 <index> is the message? And look back at my other post I added questions.

Zahach Thanks for clarifying.

^ in that file, the case of the messages as well as the color codes are ignored.
* so if the message is red, you don't need to add any color codes in the messages

 

Empire92 Perfect! Thanks! I'm trying it out now.

Empire92 Doesn't work... Well it does but I can't add a message:
when I use /addnps it doesn't say anything (probably that you didn't add a sender.sendMessage("Nps added!")
but thats not the problem. The problem is that after I use the addnps [message] and I use /nps to see if it added it... well, it doesn't :/ it shows me:
MESSAGES: <--- nothing show up here... but I did adda msg... I don't understand :/
GLOBAL:
Unfortunately, you can't do that. <--- This is what I set as a global msg and it works, only with the nps plugin.

Can you fix it?

Should be fixed now:

Empire92 FUCK YES! DUDE YES! YOU ARE A FUCKING GOD! AND I THANK YOU SO MUCH! (sorry for bad language)
There is just a little bug... (I don't really care but) it's just that when you type /nps.. the messages are all global messages:
Example, this is what shows up:
MESSAGES:
- Unfortunately you can't do that.
- Unfortunately you can't do that.
- Unfortunately you can't do that.
- Unfortunately you can't do that.
- Unfortunately you can't do that.
- Unfortunately you can't do that.
- Unfortunately you can't do that.
- Unfortunately you can't do that.
GLOBAL:
- Unfortunately you can't do that.

 

Zahach Oh, LOL. I forgot about the feature of replacing those messages when I added that part.
Want me to patch it, or is it fine?
